Off topic. First time I've heard this, but why would you need a long spoon to eat with the devil? I can understand a long table, but spoon?
If I research more I could find it. Here is what I found

Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If anyone of you eats, let him eat with his right hand, and if he drinks, let him drink with his right hand, for indeed the devil eats with his left hand and drinks with his left hand."

Key note Is that the devil eats food and drinks too...

leave this to the religious section . Here Its all American politics

It is easier for him to get 4 candidates from democrats than for the MAGA extremists to put forward a candidate that wins. They should continue the shit show and show Americans they are not fit to sit in a legislative body
A MAGA extremist stands for what values in youropinion? There are two ways at looking at things, the GOP elites dont want an outsider crashing into the party yet many would not have won without Trumps endorsement.
I think you swallowed the media lies about Trump supporters being extremists. I do not think I would hold extreme values had I been in America.
Your labelling extremists is derogatory and meant to dehumanize while turning a blind eye to the real extremist liberals. A way of smearing church going people

McCarthy already lost the sixth vote. 8 votes against him so far.
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico:
Trump has shifted support to Byron Donalds.
time for McCarthy to realize GOP votes will never see him through. GOP should do it like the liberals. You did not support Byron because he is black, hence you are a racist.
Play dirty like the Dems

Omo I got the fvcking vaccine because of urgent travel at the time. After refusing to take it for many months. I hope I will be good bro? I only got the initial two doses and didn’t take any fvcking boosters after that. I am also generally healthy apart form my drinking and smoking, I’m fit and work out regularly. I no wan hear story oo lol.
I also got vaxxed because of travel. I have not seen any side effects though. There were those who got adverse effects , the vax should not have been forced.
Doctors were forced to use FDA/CDC protocols and many lost their jobs because of exercising their inherent experience.
The Vax thing was literally forced, making Big pharma billions of dollars. to me it seems it was the money they are after.

Trump derangement pro max. Everything that happens in this life must be because of Trump. Go seek help. McCarthy is not even a Trump republican, he is more establishment, so I don’t see what this has to do with him.

All you lame Dems have to attack republicans now is “Trump stench” becuase that’s how bereft of ideas and achievements you are in your own party. Keep deluding yourself. Until DeSantis will hand Biden his ass in 2024 then we will see how much your “Trump stench” will save you. Has your own party recovered from the KKK and Robert Byrd stench yet?

Don’t mind them. And they still have the audacity to come here and talk about “Trump stench” when their whole party reeks of the KKK and segregationists. They have tried for many years but will never detach themselves from that history.

They are still a racist party, they just practice a different type of racism/slavery now. It’s very subtle but just as effective. Look at these quotes form one of their “iconic” presidents and you will understand what I mean.
Will write more later LBJ bill was passed by Republicans . Democrats somehow got back their slaves
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico:
In the spring of last year, legions of arms-control experts began popping up at think tanks and on social media, and then became key sources for hundreds of often-clueless reporters. ‘We created an echo chamber,’ [Rhodes] admitted, when I asked him to explain the onslaught of freshly minted experts cheerleading for the deal. ‘They were saying things that validated what we had given them to say.’

“The average reporter we talk to is 27 years old, and their only reporting experience consists of being around political campaigns. … They literally know nothing,” Rhodes bragged.

SlyFoxxY2K23:
All these people laughing here don’t realize that this is the major difference between the two parties. The republicans have always been more ideologically diverse with more factions within the party while the democrats have always been monolithic like the zombies they are. What did I tell you earlier about the opinions of all liberals, including the ones who mouth off on this thread, always being in lockstep with what you hear on cable TV? This is the evidence bro.

They all receive their orders and talking points from above on a near-daily basis so they all know exactly what to say and think on every issue of the day. That’s why there’s always this bizarre harmony of specific buzz words and phrases whenever you hear liberals give their opinion on any issue. (Have you noticed this before? Watch the Tucker Carlson video below for an example). That’s why there is no surprise that the democrats have all quickly fallen in line behind Hakeem Jefferies as their leader without any debate. Because thats what democrats do. They fall in line like zombies.

The Republican Party on the other hand has always been a big tent party with a broad spectrum of ideologies and many factions within it. You have the establishment/RINO faction (Romney), you have the libertarian faction (Rand Paul), you have the freedom caucus, you have the social conservatives, the fiscal conservatives, the neoconservatives, the moderates, the pro-Trump faction, the anti-Trump faction. Bruv the diversity in that party is too much which is why they sometimes have difficulties agreeing on certain policies and positions but that is really a good thing becuase it proves we are not mindless zombies like the democrats.

I am sure they will agree on a speaker soon but whoever emerges (most likley McCarthy) will know that he has his work cut out for him and can’t take any single member of his caucus for granted. As it should be.

Will go on tomorrow. This is a war between those who are MAGA and GOP elites. Dems are rock solid 212. Some 7 GOP elites can switch switch sides just to make sure any candidate who supports Trump does not get speaker.
As of now McCarthy will never get speaker.

Thanks. I usually hold out my own but he will go to CNN and liberal websites to prove any negative view wrong.
Wonder whats wrong with these people. They cannot see through the plain media lies.
For instance some journo wrote that gas prices went down in 2022 while in reality they had gone up and later came down came down after Biden sold stratregic oil reserves to China.

Is there a degree in factchecking or they just abrogated themselves the power to discredit others?
Does not matter, goodsciencing have put a full liist of athletees who died or collapsed since 2021 Let the, challenge names on the list.
I have done a randomn check and the data is corroborated. Those in the list were relatively healthy people ,,in sports and retired too.

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Tell me that list is wrong

I'm not doing this with you again. A quick google search would have stopped you from posting the nonsense above. But, I'm not sure you even research the stuff you post or have the intelligence to understand it.

You keep talking about liberal bubbles. Where the f do you think the majority of medical advances come from? Yes, liberal scientific bubbles in either liberal Ivy school sponsored research institutions or Companies started by those same grads. You really really really sound uninformed.

I try to treat everyone as a rational equally intelligent person. You've consistently proven you're neither. You're unwilling to do the work to have rational discussions or bring anything thoughtful to the conversation here. And so replying/reading what your write offers me no value. Good luck.

I got the data from goodsciencing They have a complete list 1600 and are challenging anyone to dispute theml
Maybe you can there and stop living in your liberal bubble and regurgitating what Dr Fauci says about covid

Your causal relationships being studied by two Jap proffesors.


IjeBos:
Everything you wrote is wrong. Begin by taking a course in logic and statistics. You don't even seem to understand the difference between causation and correlation. Then start by figuring out where those stats are coming from; are they accurate, did the people who died actually get covid shots. Then compare the accurate numbers to numbers from previous years. And ask yourself if there was actually a statistical increase after the covid shots. Then the next step and the next step. It's called the scientific method. I did a quick analysis of these claims, and 1.) the numbers are wrong 2.) some people int he numbers who were claimed to have died from covid shots didn't even have covid shots, some died even before covid shots were even available. And there isn't even a statistical increase from prior years.

Honestly, I'm trying not to be insulting, but you sound so uneducated right now. A lot of the fallacies in your post are things I learned in high school. It makes me realize how blessed I am at the education I received. You also seem to jump from one nonsensical conspiracy theory to another even as they are all proven to be lies. You should figure out why.

But real talk, you shouldn't be putting out medical information if you aren't a medical doctor or haven't studied it thoroughly yourself. Esp. since it can get people killed. That should be a simple thing to understand. People's health isn't a game.

For 2022, Netflix shares dropped 50.6 percent, the most the stock has declined on an annual basis since 2011. For the first time, the once-invincible company lost subscribers for two consecutive quarters, ushering in a period of painful belt-tightening that has included several hundred layoffs.
